Hi,I have made a site on localhost, uploaded it on a webhost... few days later I had to make some changes on the site, but I did the changes on the localhost,->started again with the upload, finished. went to the website, nothing changed...

specifics: I changed dropdown menu, added pictures etch... (on localhost), transfered everything on the webhost, including configuration.php, but nothing is changed on the website... what am I not seeing?thanx in advance

well its been 2 hours, and even when i go to admin control panel under menu manager, there are no submenus I added at localhost (at localhost-tested worked perfectly)...then uploaded everything.... checked the site, nothing changed... went to control panel of he site->menu manager... no submenus, if they were thransfered, they should be shown here, the same as in local host...

Akeeba backup is great. I use it frequently. I do not need it for minor changes. You should be able to see those immediately after making the changes through your admin panel. Sometimes you may need to clear your browser cache to see the changes you have just made.

I'm not sure I understand, what does backup extension have to do with the problem of updateing the site?-im not trying to backup the site, the firstupload was a simple site, now I added manu and similar stuff, this is an essential function, "updateing" the site. I imagine backup tool is doing what the name implies... not updates the site...

I hope I understood both of u correctly, so u recomend me his tool?.. ok i will give it a try, and let u know,.. thanx, but still updaing the site is something very basic, I waswondering if I missed something and maybe the fault is on my side?.. I assume not everybody is using this tool to update the site...

well this is driving me crazy... I havent tried the aemiler, because i want to know what is the problem why doesnt update work?? so i deleted everything on the website ( deleted the content "public_html").. and uploaded the site with filezilla again, the site is very simple, litlle content, but around 2.000 object dweren't transfered.. so the site is not up.... repeated the procedure a couple of times, the same result,... really no1 doesnt knw what is the problem, or no1 doesnt waant to be bothered by it?

bobi123.... I think your MySQL data is not getting transferred when you upload the site.... I don't know how bizzare this sounds... but that could be it. Joomla doesn't work like regular HTML based sites. I have done what you did by uploading a site (when I started using Joomla) and ran into the same rough weather... but when I did a backup and used it to move the site... it worked just fine.

If the changes aren't that drastic, I just do the same changes on the live site manually by logging into the backend that I did on the localhost.
